Impact of Incretin Hormone Receptors on Insulin-Independent Glucose Disposal in Model Experiments in Mice

A large contribution to glucose elimination from the circulation is achieved by insulin-independent processes. We have previously shown that the two incretin hormones, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) increase this process and, therefore, seem to...
